Ordering terminals (kiosks): profitable for a small fast-food?

Technology 6 min de lecture 5 février 2026

The customer dares to indulge. In front of a screen, one adds the bacon supplement, the large dessert, without feeling judged. Upselling is automatic and systematic.

Fluidity. 1 station = 1 cashier who doesn’t take orders but prepares the bags. It’s faster in the kitchen.

Error zero. It’s the client typing. No more “I told you no onions!”.

Cost. A complete terminal (touchscreen + POS + Printer + Stand) costs between 2000€ and 5000€ or 100€/month in leasing. Recovered within a few months by the increase in the average transaction amount.

Human? Keep a manual cash drawer for the irreducible and cash payments. The terminal manages the flow, you manage the reception.
